Punk is a music genre and counter-culture that has provided community and empowerment to generations of traumatized youth. This article is a case study on the use of punk rock counter-culture through the expression of music as a critical social work practice within a psychiatric outpatient clinic. The clinic, Lane County Behavioral Health, was founded during the deinstitutionalization era of psychiatric care for the treatment of "severe and persistent mental illness." The article describes the formation of the group, the shared personal and cultural history of the therapist with group members, and the critical engagement with psychiatric violence generated through the composition of punk music. In this, the process of composition and the lyrical content of four songs are provided. Each of these four songs demonstrate a connection of the personal experiences of psychiatric violence to a political protest against psychiatric violence. While the article focuses on the experience of punks in the psychiatric clinic, the implementation of relationality and personal-political experience are applicable beyond the punk counter-culture. The article concludes with discussion elaborating ways in which a relational analytic group can be implemented within tight knit counter-cultural communities.

Domestic violence is commonly defined as violence 'as a pattern of abusive behavior in any relationship that is used by one partner to gain or maintain power and control over another intimate partner'. This definition attempts to formulate domestic violence in universal and neutral terms that can be applied to any identity. However, in its attempted neutrality, this definition erases concrete experience at the intersections of identity leading to material processes against the bodies of LGBTQIA/BIPOC. Through a Deleuzo-Guattarian reading of Kimberlé Crenshaw's theory of intersectionality, Jasbir Puar finds a mode of theorising domestic violence through a combined approach to assemblage theory and intersectionality wherein concepts of identity and process provide conflicting and yet inseparable aspects of critical theory. Through developing an intersectional-assemblage theory to reformulate domestic violence as a central concept in understanding the workings of power and process, the nodes and switch points of oppression can be targeted through anti-violence abolitionist praxis.

People in carceral institutions are at increased risk for COVID-19 infection. Applying critical race theory to the problem of COVID-19 provides tools to analyze the risk of infection and evaluate the public health response within the imprisoned, jailed, and detained population. On the surface, this is due to factors related to a lack of hygiene products, an inability to physically distance, a low quality and inaccessible health care, and poor health. However, at root, the increased risk for infection is directly linked to the legacy of slavery and colonization within the history of US prisons, jails, and detention centers. As a solution to the crisis of COVID-19 and prevention of future pandemics within prisons, jails and detention centers, a critical race orientation provides reason and direction for mass decarceration and racial justice.

Across industries, labor activism and unionism has emerged as a powerful force from the crisis of COVID-19 to advocate for job security, workplace safety, and public policy. However, social workers have largely not participated in this movement. In order to better represent social worker interests, unionizing the social work labor force is essential.
